I'm new to VMD and Java however I do have a programing background from years back so if my code looks backwards then please excuse me.
Now I just came across this thread and the main part being "You should always write a new value to every output jack on every call to ProcessSample()."
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=592
So prior to seeing that thread I was testing to see if I had to write out the same value every time to the outputJack and this is where things got odd.
Code: Select all
public void ProcessSample()
{
// add your own code here
double tempout = outputJack1.GetValue();
if (tempout!=2.5 || count<1)
{
outputJack1.SetValue(2.5);
textLabel1.SetText(count+"");
count=count+1;
}
}
1st pass, the loop is executed (as expected) tempout=0
2nd pass, the loop is bypassed (as expected) tempout=2.5
3rd pass, the loop is executed (hmm) tempout=0
4th pass, the loop is bypassed (oh) tempout=2.5
and so on and on. I did not expect this.
If I change the "count" from count<1 to count<2
1st pass, the loop is executed (as expected) tempout=0
2nd pass, the loop is executed (as expected) tempout=2.5
3rd pass, the loop is bypassed (as expected) tempout=2.5
and from here on out it's always bypassed. Interesting..
Is there a technical reason to why when setting the out value twice in a row it's taken?
